The Mexican peso strengthened 0.84% to a spot rate of 18.6800 per dollar on November 4, following a 0.51% drop in the dollar index. Analysts expect the peso's appreciation to continue after the US midterm results.
A stronger peso reduces the local cost of imported feed grains priced in dollars, which helps Mexican feed margins. The move is driven by dollar weakness and has limited direct effect on commodity prices.
